Hickam Farm

Hickam Farm is a fainting (Myotonic) goat breeder in Danville, IN, serving Hendricks County and the Indianapolis area. Blair Hickam has been raising fainting goats for several years, holds membership in national breeding associations, and participates in registry programs overseen by the American Goat Society to support genetic health. All breeding stock undergoes routine wellness screening, including tests for common goat conditions. The goats reside on a small family farm with open pastures and sturdy shelters, where daily handling encourages friendly, calm behavior.

Rotational grazing and pasture-based feeding are central to their approach, helping maintain hoof integrity and digestive balance. Detailed lineage records are kept for every kid, and the herd has been featured at regional livestock shows. Feeding blends local hay with a measured mineral mix to ensure balanced nutrition across seasons. Regular hoof trimming in spring and fall supports mobility and prevents overgrowth.
